So we've been bashing FFG (OK, some of us......shhh, no names please, haha) for not finalizing their great nerfing started in FAQ 4.3.2, so that true "balance" is brought to the galaxy, because it stinking isn't. Sorry. Woops. I know, we'll just await FFG's rulings like peasants awaiting their master's word, sitting in filth as in days of old.

Anyway.

"...and now, for something completely different."

Positive thing is, FFG has seen fit to make fixes, boosts, basic assists to ships that were issued before Title cards were standard fair in Expansion packs. This has been a wondrous thing for the game, and made them money at the same time; a proverbial win-win. With the M3-A Syck being an exception as the Title card was released with the Expansion but failed to give the ship true viability in squads outside of Epic, for the most part. I was wondering what ships are missing a Title . I think the original game piece, the T-65 doesn't have one; nor does its mate the TIE/LN . The TIE/SA has a Title to make it a shuttle, but the main ships usefullness is still basic and Title -less. Obviously, the most glaring bad ship in the game --who happens to oddly have the game's most violent and powerfull name-- the sad TIE/IT hasn't a Title nor much of a use outside of Epic and missions. In addition, the TIE/PH hasn't a Title, thought the two high PS pilots have fared well overall post 'ye old Phantom nerf. The K-Wing is a fantastic ship in, one of the game's absolute, but I know of no Title either for it. Another game winner of high statute flies the E-Wing , boasting the amazing abilities of Corran Horn at the top of the heap, and she too lacks a Title, and the rest of the pack is expensive for it's chassis.

Titles on all of these ships noted above would be fun; and some desperately need one, and one really is desperate! Understanding others like the last three I mentioned could have a balancing Title that removes something good to add something else good that could potentially add flavor to the game and really just give a boost to their mid-level and generics. I mean there is precedence in spades for such actions, and with the new fantastic Titles given to the Star Viper and Kiraxeraxreaxe in mind, why not shoot for the starts FFG?

Did I miss one?

B-wing no title. And no, making the e/1 a title is not going to cut it.

I knew it would arrive.....just not by my hands.

True, I love Nera and a Title could assist he making more squads; they're tanky and hit hard, that 2-K can't get out of large bases way sometimes; maybe we can give the 2-K to the Lambda and give her some 3-S loops?

Firesprays may as well have no titles as both are pretty terrible.

Sounds good to me. Although I would prefer some sort of re-inforce/ evade action for B-wings, making the 3 banks into S-loops would also greatly help the craft. Maybe even help more than the evade token.

The Great Nerfing from the worlds prep NerF.A.Q. with all the Nerfrattas did nothing to bring balance to the force. The end results were heavier to Scum than the 2016 worlds.

So it is safe to say, their current strategy/doctrine/thinking is no way reflective of True Balance . They deserved being called Laser Brain a few times.

TIE/LN

TIE/SA

TIE/IT

Man, could you be any more esoteric? Who ever uses such codes to refer to those ships?

Anyway, I opened a thread a few months ago about this very topic. You'll find it here .

Just to be as pedantic as possible:

The TIE/ln does have a title. But all it's almost never used in a TIE swarm. Mostly because it's rebel only.

My childhood blood boils when I read or see that diabolical spawn of Satan. My friends know, if one fields such a spasm of vile upon my mat, I shall grasp it and fling it towards eternity, where it shall burn in an unquenchable fire.

The TIE/IT has no need of a title. It already fulfils its role of punishing you for taking it.

Edit: What if it let you shoot two pieces of ordnance at once?
